FS: Vintage BUCHERER Chronograph / Lemania 1873 Manual Winding

For sale is a Vintage BUCHERER Chronograph. Circa 1975.

Satin Finish / Brushed Solid Stainless Steel case and screw caseback with BUCHERER Swiss engraved inside the caseback.

Original Sporty Gray Dial with 3 White Subdials. Luminous Filled Black Hour and Minute Hands. Constant Seconds Register at 9:00. Bright Orange Hands on Minute and Hour Chronograph recorders.

LEMANIA 1873 caliber. The Lemania caliber 1873 was created in 1968 by Lemania Watch Co. & A. Lugrin Co.. It was originally made for the famous Omega Speedmaster “Moon Watch” chronograph. Brands using this movement, aside from Omega, included Breitling, Chronoswiss, Baume & Mercier among others. This caliber is well known for being robust and having a large power reserve.

Watch and chronograph (start / stop / reset) functions are working properly.

Watch went through a complete service less than 6 months ago, however I strongly recommend to keep this vintage chronograph away from water unless an expert watchmaker makes sure that the watch is pressure tested for this purpose.
Please refer to pictures for actual cosmetic condition of this chronograph.

Price US$ 850.00 including shipping in the CONUSA. Price is FIRM. No trades at this time please.

PayPal (+ 3%) is welcome as payment.

International shipping and insurance available for buyers abroad. Please request information. Send me an e-mail if you have any questions.

Thank you for your time and attention.
